80s cartoons! This week we go back in time and talk about some of our favorite cartoon shows from the 1980s. Some of the shows we talk about include Transformers, My Little Pony, Jem, He-Man, She-Ra, Mighty Orbots, Wheeled Warriors, Care Bears, The Real Ghostbusters, Thundercats, Voltron and many more! Also, how peculiar *is* the Purple Pieman, anyway?

So fill up your bowl with some sugar encrusted cereal of your choosing, and let’s talk cartoons!

Now I want a sketch of Pie-man setting up He-man and She-ra while receiving the care bear stare.

You forgot Speed Racer and Josie and the Pussycats. WOW I didn’t remember that you kids spent so much time watching cartoons.

I am finally catching up on the pod casts. My favorites cartoons during the 80’s were Thundar the Barbarian, Danger Mouse, Inspector Gadget, Voltron, ThunderCats, Teenage Mutant Ninji Turtles, Gem and Monchichis ( I just love saying Monchichis). I also loved watching the “The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo”. I have watched Scooby-Doo since the beginning (this does show my age.) I have been a cartoon/anime watcher since Speed Racer, Marine Boy and Kimba the White Lion (story has some similarities to the musical “The Lion King”.)
I believed you guys missed some Disney offerings – DuckTales and Chip and Dale’s Rescue Rangers. (Or you mentioned it while I was distracted listening on a break at work.)
Thank you guys for the jaunt down 1980’s Cartoon Memory Lane. I will go home later and watch my “Jonny Quest” DVD. (The original 1960s series)
